Srinagar, Jun 14: Shalimar link road connecting Dargah Hazratbal and SKIMS Soura via Foreshore Road is in shambles. The road has not been completed even the work on it had started over 2 years ago.
R&B and LCMA pass bucks blaming each other. Roads and Buildings Department says it is unable to start work on the road and Lakes Conservation and Management Authority erstwhile LAWDA has not completed the work on the embankments.
Locals said that LCMA is least interested in the completion of the embankment work. They said dicey potholes have made this vital road stretch much vulnerable for even pedestrians to walk on, not to talk of plying vehicles as the authorities seem least bothered towards the safety of the people.
The macadamization of this road was done some two years ago and ever since the government did not bother to spend a single penny on it except for hollow promises vis-à-vis its renovation.
The locals living around Shalimar Link Road accused the government of turning a blind eye towards the depilated condition of this vital road link. (KNT)
